This Company is formed for the purchase and working the celebrated Frontino and Bolivia Gold Mines and works in New Granada, South America. The Directors feel great pleasure in calling attention to ate reports furnished by Captain William Goyen. It is - well known that the St. John del Rey Mining Company is especially indebteo , to this gentleman for its success, as the Directors of that Company have so repeatedly and substan tially acknowl'Aged, He was in their service for 16 years as mining engineer, and, by his practical knowledge and the introdn.ction of machinery of his own invention, brought those mires to their present position as the most productive and bes*„ paying gold mines in the world. Cap . ,cain G o y en i s now engaged to proceed to New Granada, to superintend the operations of the Frcntino and Bolivia Mines, and is taking with hi m mac hi nery o f a lik e c haracter, but on an improved principle, to that which he iintroduced and which is now working at the St. John del Rey Company's mines ; an i so satisfied are the directors of the success of this undertaking, that they and their friends have already agreed to take a large number of shares. The reports of Captain Geyer. and other reliable autho rities, made from personal observation, designate these Mines as equal, if not superior, to any in the known world. No charges whatever will be made for preliminary , ex penses up to the time of allotment. Applications for shares may be made to the London and County Bank, Lombard-street, or any of its branches; or to the brokers or secretary of the Company. Allotments will be made according to priority of application, and in case of non-allotment the deposit will be returned without de iuction. Plans and sections of the property, with specimens of rich gold ore from the mines, and a model of Captain Geyen's machinery, may be seen at the offices of the Com pany, where prospectuses, reports, and every imformat , may be obtained.

This Company has been formed for the construction of a Raii . `waY from Douglas to Peel (passing through St. John's), tirt the Isle of Man. The improved trade of these important tow n", as well as the prosperous condition and increasing Population of the island, and the rapid augmentation of the number of visitors during late years, call for the immediate i ntroduction of railways. The Agricultural capabilities of the Island are great; and its Mineral products are acknowledged to be rich in yield and av , rve average value ; whilst around the Coast there are extensive Fisheries, and an unlimited supply of Sea- Weed for Man ure . The expense and trouble, however, of land-carriage, have hitherto rendered these advantages com paratively unavailable. Slate Quarries are in active operation; and the quality of the Slate is equal in closeness of grain and durability to any produced from the great Welsh quarries. The Granite near St, John's compares favourably with that now used in the Liverpool Dock Works, and would at once, by means of railway facilities, become available for export. One of the proposed Stations oil the line will be at St. John's, where the Courts of Tynwald meet, and which is also the centre of the Foxdale mining district. The produce of these mines is now brought by land-carriage (there being no water communication) to Douglas, a distance of nearly ten miles, whilst Coals and other important materials, as well as all necessaries required by the inland population, are conveyed into the interior by the same mode. Besides these items of traffic, the Fairs, which are frequently held during the year in this district, must add considerably to the annual revenue of the Company. The principal towns are Douglas, Peel, Castletown, Ramsey, and Laxey : Douglas being the chief port, and the great commercial depot, as well as the principal place of arrival and departure of the steam packets plying to and from the Island. At the port of Peel the fisheries are prin cipally conducted, employing upwards of 1,000 vessels; the place of destination for the produce is Douglas ; the route is tedious, and the transit by the existing means ex pensive.. The access to the Island is easy, and the means of corn munication with Liverpool, Fleetwood, Whitehaven, Silloth, Glasgow, Belfast, Dublin, and other ports, both by sailing and steam vessels, are frequent and convenient. Hence, Tourists visit the Island in large numbers, above 100,000 passengers havi ng b een l an d e d a t it s P or t s during the past year. Such Visitors, attracted by the rntiquarian relics, scenery, and other objects of interest, would, as a matter of course, go by the proposed Railway from Douglas to the interior, and across the Island to Peel. The highest medical authorities bear testimony to the salubrity of the climate and purity of the water. The picturesque is united with the more solid advantage of cheap living, provisions being abundant and comparatively inex• pensive, whilst the rates of duties on foreign produce are so small as to render the Island most advantageous as a per manent place of residence. Her Majesty's Government and the Local Authorities are now expending upwards of £60,000, for the improvement of the Ports of Douglas and Peel. The Electric Telegraph to England has been recently established. The Lines of Rail will be single, with requisite sidings. Th e length of Line will be about twelve miles, and the gradients easy throughout. The landowners and popula tion along it are most favourable to the project. From Statistics recently collected on the spot, with much care, by con?petent persons, and well supported by Official Returns, it is confidently expected that the Traffic wi:l re turn a good Dividend upon the Invested Capital, The fol lowing is an Estimate of the Traffic : Passengers, inclusive of Tourists £7,500 per annum. Goods, Minerals, Fish, &c ... 5,500 Parcels and Mails * . l5O ,150 Working Expenses at ev en 50 per Cent. . £l3 6,500 Leaving for Dividend ................ £6,6,50 Plane, Sections, Szc., of the Line are completed, and all necessary forms are being complied with, in accordance with the St: nding Orders of the Court of Tynwald to obtain an Act of the Local Parliament. Neither Imperial or Local Taxes are levi e d i n t h e I sland, and those h eav y charges which tend so much to reduce the value of Railway property in England and other countries, no less than to diminish the Shareholders' Dividends, can not, in any degree whatever, prevail with respect to this Lino. An eminent Contractor's firm have agreed to purchase the land, make the Railway, provide and fit up a ll S tations, furnish Rolli ng St oc k f or wor king the Line, and Telegraphs, upon satisfactory terms. Interest at 5 per cent, p er A nnum will b e a ll owe d , until the opening o f t h e Line, on the amount paid upon shares. An advantageous arrangement can be made with respon sible parties to Lease the Line for 7. 14, or 21 years. Forms of Application for Shares may be obtained from the S ecretary , Solicitors, or Brokers of the Company. No. 22,378.

AQUATICS. UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE. Compared with the dashing work in both tho University boats at Putney yesterday, the previous performance of the crews might be considered insignificant; both evidently wero on their mettle, and their exertions gained for thorn the unqualified approbation of their friends, and augur well for a fine race on Saturday. Still there are some trifling defects which ere then will probably disappear. 'I he Cam bridge crew went out shortly after eleven o'clock from Symonds's yard with new oars supplied from his store, and not yet painted, their own sets, which they brought from Cambridge, being disapproved of. They rowed up against the tide to the Ship at Mortlake, where they made a fine start, and rowed the course down on the ebb. The whole distance was rowed at a bursting pace, commencing at 36 and reaching 37 or 38 strokes per minute, when they were well into their work, and they were well together in the pull, although close critics were of opinion that some of the crew still threw themselves a little too much back at the end of the stroke, by which they lose time, to say nothing of expending strength, without a com mensurate effect. Their pace was certainly very fast, the distance being accomplished in little more than 201 minutes. The Oxonians went out from the London Rowing Club boat-house, at about 12 o'clock, and rowed a little above the Ship before they turned to go off, and were then nearly on a level with Barker's rails. They went off at a fine pace, and getting into the celebrated Oxford swing almost immedi ately, came down at a fine pace, rowing at the rate of from 38 to 39 or 391 strokes per minute. Their pace was acce lerated towards the finish, and the time occupied was about 20} minutes and some five or six seconds less than the Can tabs, with a little more distance but a trifle more tide. Bet ting was 6 to 4 on Oxford, but neither freely laid nor taken , The Stork steamer has been engaged by Henry Kelly, the ex-champion of the 'Thames, to convoy spectators from Woolwich to accompany the race. _-, K INAHAN'S LL WHISKY v.

While Exchange Bank s an i Credit Institu'ions have been established to connect this country financially with almost every foreign market, and to give fact Dies for conveying to our shores every desert' tion of merchandi e, it is remarkable that as soon as the operation of ' , mportng is performed the monetary facilities are withdrawn. The bills drawn upon our merchants mature, and must either be met by the mer chant's capital unaided, or by sales. Thu , , when tempo rari'y there is an excess of any co nmodity imported, its price is undu y depressed, and a. Mon losses are incurre Ordinary bankers and discount houses dislike making ad vances upon merchandise, having no organisation for exa mining the goods and correct y estimating their value. What they want are good bills, drawn on those who, know ing the value, have accepted for a fair advance. Division of labour is here as elsewhere found to be most convenient and profitable. To meet this want, which every merchant must acknow ledge, the Warrant Bank ng Company is formed. The bu i ness of the Company will mainly :onsist in making d♦ nces upon deposit of the staple articles of produce, represented by dock warrants or other means of absolute assignment, duly inspected and valued on behalf of the Company, and with a proper margin to allow for depreciation. These advances will be mve in a ceptances by the Com pany of the drafts of its customers, and as every bill will re oreaent mer handise readily convert'ble, and b at the same time secured by the whole ca ita of a powerful Company, the exact position of which will be patent to al', there can be no doubt that the whole Die ount Market will be available when it is desired by th. , holder to turn the bill into c,,sh. It will be readily apparent that the existence of such an institution, while it will be of great service to merchants, and increase the stability of the entre class, will be an equal con venience to bankers and aiscount firms, furnishing them with a class of bills rarely obtainable. In order to render the due payment of the Company's acceptances certain, the Directors undertake that the entire paid-up capital of the Company will be invested, and, so far as practicable, remain invested in British and East Indian Government securities, and upon deposit at call, and it is proposed that the capital thus paid up and invested within the first year shall reach the sum of at least £200,e00. The field which exists for such an undertak'ng will be at once apparent from a glance at the Board of Trade returns of foreign impor s for the past year, which amounted (not to speak of home produce) to over £200,00,000. If we estimate the average stock of foreign goods held in warehouse, as equal to three months' consumption, it would represent an amount of 1.50,000,000._ _ _ _ Advances may also be made when deemed advisable u-on Stocks and Shares, in permanent undertakings readily con vertible. A re , sonable proportion will always be maintained be tween the extent of business undertaken and the cal'ed-up capital. Should it be nece.sary, the latter will be increased to one million sterling, to be invested as already indicated, simply as a guarantee fund. Branches will, in due time, be established at Liverpool, M.nchester, Glasgow, SE^. Sze. ~ Tt a Directors will not receive any remuneration until the shareholders have been paid £5 per cent. by way of dividend on their paid-up capital. Atter payment of 5 per cent, the Directors will receive one-fifth of the nett profits. No promotion money will be paid for originating this un dertaking. The preliminary expenses will be confined to the necessary disbursements Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be obtained of the brokers, bankers, solicitors, and at the tem porary Offices of the Company, but no application for shares will be considered unless a deposit of .£1 per share has been previou ly p .1d to the bankers of the Company. In the event of no a lotment being made the deposit will be returned without deduction, and should the number allotted be less than the number applied for, the payment in excess will be applied towards the balance of the deposit.

The visit of their Royal Highnesses was kept strictly private as far as anything like State ceremonial was con cerned ; but so far as popular reception, it was public enough. It was only known the night before that they would come to Woolwich at all, but that notice was amply sufficient to throng the streets with visitors of every class, who welcomed the royal pair with all those testimonies of affectionate respect which, though daily recurring,seem always fresh and hearty. The Prince and Princess of Wales arrived at Woolwich at half-past 1, and drove at once to the Arsenal, where the Talia— which in English means the Vanguard, was lying off the gun-wharf pier. Hero a few of the chief officers of the Arsenal were in waiting in full uniform to receive the party, and here around the very prettily draped gangway which led down into the yacht were collected the rank and fashion of the garrison to do honuur to the occasion. His Excellency M. Musurus, with Madame Musurus, Khalil Effendi, First Secretary of Legation, Messrs, Etienne and Paul Musurus, and Col. Ahmed Bey! met their Royal Highnesses on the pier. No Roya] salutes were fired, as the visit was a private one; and, conducted by the Turkish Ambassador, the PrinceEs went at once on board the Taiia, the Prince accompanying Madame Musurus. Lady De Grey was in attendance on the Princess, and Colonel Keppel on the Prince, and the Duke of Sutherland, with Lord Alfred Paget, had also the honour of accompanying their Royal Highnesses. On board the Talia wore Mr. John Penn, the maker of the engines ; Mr. Samuda, the builder of the vessel ; and Mr. Holland, its decorator ; but, except these gentlemen, the visit, as far as regards those on board the steamer, was strietly private. Their Royal Highnesses, after a short stay on deck, re tired with M. and Madame Musurus to the State saloon till the vessel was well free of the pier, and with the Turkish standard aft and the Prince's en sign at the main, began moving down the river amid the cheers of those who had witnessed the embarcation. t was scarcely a day for a river trip. The clouds were heavy and hung low, just letting the muddy shore at half flood be dimly visible; on either side there was more than enough wind for a vessel that did not want to sai;, and lumbering up across the stream were heavy galliots and barges, which look picturesque enough in Van dervelde's pictures, but nowhere else. Still the Royal party seemed to find charms in the scenery, or at least wished to see it, for almost directly after the vessel quitted Wool wich they came out upon deck, and the Princess, Madame Musurus, and Lady de Grey had chairs brought for them, and sat down aft, near the grand saloon, while the Prince of Wales went round and examined the vessel from stem to stern, from engine-room to stockhole. The Talia, though not by any means the first yacht which has been built for Sultans in this coun try—for, if we mistake not, the last Sultan bad nearly half a dozen—is at least the first that has been built for the present ruler of the Turks. Cer tainly, if ono m a y j u dgo from the perfection of finish of th at on b oar d w hich the Prince and Prin cess took a pleasant trip on Tuesday, his Imperial INlajesty is not likely to need another for some time to come. It is needless to go into a mere ship broker's account of all her excellencies—it will be sufficient that she is built of iron on the most ex quisite model, and that within 260 feet by 28 fe e t, which is her extreme length and bre a dth , every recent improvement has been introduced into the hull which experience could suggest. A more per fectly fitted, anc, we may also a dd , a more beauti fully fitted steamer never left this country. Though her tonnageis onlyooo, and th ough a great space is, of course, occupied by her engines and State saloons aft, yet the accommodation forward has been so admirably managed as to give cabins and good messrooins to all the large staff of cfficers which are sure to b e p u t on board of her in the East. take almost all the Bosphorus boats, whether Sultan's or ferry steamers, the Talia is painted white, with rich gilt mouldings marking her external lines, Like other Bosphorus boats, too, which have to st eer among, an d now an d then avoid, th e calques that in summer are always flit ting like flies over its waters, its wheel is placed amidships, on the bridge, so that the officer Director, Mr. F.

Their Lordships sat as a Committee for Privileges this afternoon at half-past two o'clock, Lord Redes dale in the chair. Among the noble lords present were the Lord Chancellor, Lord Cranworth, Lord Redesdale, the Earl of Lovelace, the Earl Vernlam, and others. LORD ATIILUMNEY'S CLAIM. Tnis was the claim of Sir William Somerville to vote at the election of representative peers for Ire land as Lord Athlumney. The:letters patent were pot in reciting the Act of Union which gave power to the Crown to create one peer for Ireland on the extinction of every three Irish peprages, and al'o reciting that three Irish peerages having become extinet the Crown had created the petitioner a peer of Ireland. Mr. Sergeant Burke appeared on behalf of the claimant ; the Crown was unrepresented. Toe Lord Chancellor inquired during the course of the proceedings whether the house was bound to take the recitals in the letters patent as conclusive evidence of the f❑cts therein stated. Mr. Sergeant Burke replied that their Lordships had always taken the recitals as sufficient evidence of the facts stated. Lord Redesdale remarked that, although it was a very bad practice, their Lordships were in the habit of admitting the facts so stated as proved, and he supposed they most do so in the present instance. The Lord Chancellor eaid that, whatever rule of practice it might be desirable for their Lordships to adopt in future, it would not be fair to the claimant to object to the reception of the evidence on the present occasion. He, therefore, moved that the claim had been satisfactorily made out. Claim allowed accordingly. LORD DE BLAQITIERE'S CLAIM. This was the claim of the Right Hon. Lord De Blaquiere to vote at the election of representative peers for Ireland. The peerage was created in the reign of George 111., and the petitioner claimed as the eldest son of the third lord. --- -- Mr. Sergeant Burke appeared for the claimant. Claim allowed. THE WE NTWORTH PEERAGE. This was the claim of the Hon. Ralph Gordon M surviving ilbanke,commonly called Viscount Ockham, the Son of William Earl of Lovelace, to the honour and dignit y of Lord Wentwort h. Mr. Fleming and M r. Lushington appeare d f or only the claimant, and the Attorney• General and Mr, Charles Clarke represented the Crown. The dignity of Lord Wentworth was created by writ of summons to Parliament in the 21st Henry VIII. in the person of Sir Thomas Wentworth of Nettlested. He was succeeded by his son Thomas, whose second son Henry held the dignity after his death. Thomas, the eldest son of Henry, was the fourth lord, and was succeeded by his son Thomas, whose only daughter Henrietta died without issue. Anne, Lady Wentworth, the sister of the fifth earl, succeeded to the title on th e death of her niece, and married Sir William Noel, and the issue of their eldest son having become extinct, the title descended through their daughter Margaret to her grandson, Sir Edward Noel, who was created Viscount Went.. worth in 1762. His son Thomas dying without issue the title descended through his daughter Judith to Anne Isabella Noel, who married George Gordon, the seventh Lord Byron, whose d aug ht er A ugus t a Ada Byron married William, the eighth Lord King, since created Earl of Lovelace. The eldest son of the Earl of Lovelace succeeded to the title of Lord Wentworth in 1860, but died unmarried in 1862, leaving the present claimant the eldest surviving son of the Earl. Mr. Fleming having summed up the evidence ad duced on behalf of the petitioner, The Attorney-General, in reply to their lordships, stated that he could find no defect in the proof of the petitioner, and, so far as he saw, the claim had been made out. The Lord Chancellor said he had no difficulty in advising their lordships that the petitioner had made out his claim. Claim all ow ed accordingly.

In the Talia this bridge-house steerit`g has been introduced into the Sultan's: yacht s for the first time, because Abdul Aziz alweiys comm ands the yacht himself, and when on boerd on a cruise drops his Caliphate to become its commander. It is in the State saloons of the Talia, however, that the care with which the Sultan has watebed every step in the construction of this beautiful vessel is to be seen. Every pattern and every decoration, it is said, were sent by the Sultan hims elf, and the result is a specimen of the most perfectly Oriental style of decoration, yet at the same of the richest, quietest, and most striking that we hme ever seen. The Prince and Princess yesterday were most ear nest in their praises of its magnificent good taste. The whole style may be described by saying that the panelling is entirely composed of the gemnetria patterns of the Bombay work iu silver and ivory with which we are all so familiar on the Indian work-boxes. These patterns and massive but ex quisitely brilliant cue-glass corn;ces, balustrades, and hand-rails are the materials of the decorations., which are blended together with a skill and effect., that cannot easily be described. There was great. difficulty in getting the cut-glass work so to fit as to, avoid the risk of fracture from vibration ; but. Niessrs. Green, of Upper Thames-street, contrived it somehow, though it is to be feared that the saloon will wear a different appearance after it has crossed the Bay of Biscay to what it wore yesterday, the Indian panelling, and, in fact, all the rest the decorations, were intrusted to Messrs. Holland. Yesterday was not the first trip of the Talia down the river. She had been tried once before at the mea sured mile on the Mapiin Sands, when the average of her runs at the mile gave her 171, knots, or a little over 21 statute miles an hour. On that occasion her engines, though only of 350-horse power, worked up to 2,500 indicated hors© power, and made 40 re. volutions a minute, with a pressure of less than 251 b of steam. There was no attempt made at this speed yesterday, for, in the first place, the Talia was in deep sea trim and rather down by the head with coals, so that if the speed had been wanted she could not have made it, and, in the second place, the river was so crowded with shipping that it w us difficult to go a quarter of a mile without stoppin g or slow ing. The Prince, as we have said, visited the en gine-room with Mr. John Penn and Captai a Comyn, the English commander of the vessel, and Colonel Ahmed Bey. His royal highness remained some time watching the machinery, which was working with the apparent ease and perfect silence that seems to belong almost exclusively to the finished ma chinery of Messrs. Penn. There was only 20lb of steam while the Prince was below, but even then, while condensing, the engines were doing 33 revo lutions a minute, though the stroke was only fire feet and the diameter of the cylinders 71 inches. At this time the Talia was running 19 miles an hour by the land. When near Gravesend the royal party, with the members of the suite and the Turkish Em bassy, retired to lunch, while the Talia kept swiftly on her way down amid the crowds of shipping, which dipped flags as they neared the royal standard and kept them down till the vessel was almost out of sight. When off Southend the wind was blowing so fresh that every part of the ship, which, with much justice, claims to be perfectly ventilated, was as cool below as on deck, which is saying a great deal. The wind, however, was little thought of, but the masses of black clouds that gathered round the horizon were so ominous of heavy rain that a little below- Southend, near the Mouse Light, the Talia was pat about, and, turning easily in a small circle, again headed up the river. Then, indeed, the cold strong wind was felt in allits bitterness. It seemed, however, to make no manner of impression on the Princess who, with Madame Musurus and Lady do Grey, had returned to the deck with his Royal Highness and sat as qu'etly in her chair as though the hard angry squall was a mere gentle breeze of the south. But their composure was not destined to last long. When off Gravesend pier, where the Princess had not been since the memorable day she landed there to meet her Royal husband, the long impending rain came down at last, and after a futile attempt to keep it out with wraps and shaws the Princess at last gave way, and made a fair run for the deck saloon, fol lowed quite as eagerly, though perhaps not quite so, actively, by the other ladies. The run back averaged a little over 19 miles an hour, which, considering that the Talia was down by the head, and put forth little more than three-quarter speed, augurs well of what she is likely to do in the smooth waters of the Bosphorus. At a little before 5 o'clock the yacht returned to Woolwich, and after taking a most cor dial farewell of M. and Mde. Musurus, their Royal Highnesses disembarked and drove back to town, having, to use their own expression, " enjoyed their trip most thoroaghly." The Talia is all ready for sea now, but it is not expected that she will leave before Monday next. With such costly and fragile furniture it would al most be wiser if her trip across the Bay of Biscay were delayed till the equinox were past. But in whatever order her state saloons may arrive, cer tainly in machinery and hull a finer steam yacht will never have entered the Bosphorus. ~' Mr, Gladstone and the Government Annuitieg The Chancellor of the Exchequer, in committee on Government Annuities Bill, intends to move the following clause after Clause 7 (Life Annuities) : " The Postmaster-General, with the consent of the Com missioners of her Majesty's Treasury, may, if he shall think fit, authorise and direct such of his officers as ho may select to receive such moneys as may become payable upon con tracts entered into under this act for remittance to the Com missioners for the Reduction of the National Debt, and to pay on behalf of the said commissioners all such moneys as may become duo and payable under such contracts.
